36 deaths are recorded in the Kennedy family tree on this site, from the first in 1923 to the most recent in 2025. This page lists every one of them in the order they happened: the 29 members of the tree who have died, and the 7 notable spouses who married into the family and are marked “by marriage” below. 19 of the 36 are counted as tragic or untimely — the assassinations, the plane crashes, the overdoses and accidents that the press learned to file under a single heading.
That story, and the argument over whether “curse” is the right word for it, is told on our Kennedy Curse page; this page is only the ledger. Each entry gives the years, the cause of death where it is documented, the age at death, and a link to the full profile. Ages are computed from birth and death years alone, so someone who died before their birthday may appear a year older than they were.
